God's Choice of Mate

Grandpa's request

Doctors and nurses also entered the mother's room to check the condition of the mother,Brother Roy and Wirda are welcome to come out.However, my heart is so heavy to leave the mother.My fingers firmly hold the hand of the mother as if not want to let go of my grasp.I keep looking at the mother deep and long.Really my view is not want to escape from staring at him even if only for a moment.Akh,a really strange feeling runs through my heart.However, maybe I really miss my togetherness with my mother.Mother looks at me and gives her smile that is so soothing to my heart.Be beautiful and calm in the image of the face of my mother.

The doctor's voice broke my daydream, "Dek can wait outside for a while.Let us do an examination of the mother's sister?," said the doctor slowly.

"Awhile, doc, two minutes I want to hug my mother.I really miss my mother doc," I asked.

The doctor smiled and nodded.And without being told I immediately hugged my mother so tightly.Without realizing that my tears flowed slowly,"Rani is very unfortunate with the mother.Mother quickly healed yes Bun.So we can be together again.Rani wants to always be close to the mother," said I sobbed.

Mother rubbed my tears slowly, "Well, oh,mother's daughter even cried.Mother is fine son.In she Allah the mother will always be with Rani and the mother will always support all Rani's decisions as long as Rani's choice is on the path of truth to expect ridho from God ta'ala just love.Don't cry again yes son.Bunda is also very fond of Rani.Rani must be strong and grow into a daughter of a sholihah mother," said the mother while peeping my forehead lovingly.

Hearing my crying mother's words slowly faded but the turmoil of worry and anxiety of fear continued to roll in my heart.Wirda held my shoulders gently,"Ran, she said,let's go out for a little while and not long after you've checked we're in again," said Wirda.

"Yes Rani.Betul said Wirda,"sahut Kak Roy chimed.

Finally with a very heavy feeling I also came out of the mother's room with Kak Roy and Wirda.But my eyes continue not wanting to be off staring at the mother.Wirda who saw me trying to calm me,"Ran, I'm sure you're looking at me,mama will be fine, convince all to Allah" Wirda said with a smile.

I nodded and came out of the mother's room.It felt like for so long I waited for the doctor and nurse to come out.I kept pacing and feeling restless.So not long the doctor and nurse came out of the mother's room.I also rushed approach and immediately ask the condition of the mother to the doctor, "Dok, how is my mother?,"how are you worried.

The doctor who saw my anxiety tried to calm me down,"Mother sister is currently asleep after getting an injection and taking medicine.Currently her condition is still in our view.So calm sister and pray for the recovery of her mother only.And one more thing please at this time let mother sister to sleep and rest and do not be disturbed first because the mother sister has not fully recovered.But sister do not worry too much yes.Detap much pray to God because only He can provide healing for the mother sister.Alright me stay first, brother," said the doctor smiling and passing away.

Roy's brother approached me, "Ran, just sit down first yeah," he said.

I nodded and walked over to Wirda who was sitting looking at me.

"What a calm Ran," Wirda said.

"Oh yeah brother buy drinks huh?would it be warm or cold?" asked Roy.

Wirda then spontaneously replied, "Wirda who is cold aja sak."

"Oh yes Wir is ready.And Rani wants warm or cold Ran?," asked Kak Roy looking at me.

"Rani don't have to, brother," I said lethargicly.

"Hmmmmm don't do that dong Ran.Silver buy a warm drink only Ran and can not refuse.Ok!," he said with sumringah.

I also saw his smile could not resist, "Well brother.Thank you very much, brother," said I slowly.

"Just relax Ran.Now Rani do not think of the assortment yes.Please, for the sake of mother," said Kak Roy while giving a smile that is so shady.

I nodded slowly hearing Kak Roy's words and he looked happy.Then Kak Roy went to the cafeteria.While I and Wirda were waiting in a chair in front of the mother's room.When I and Wirda were busy talking suddenly faint voice of someone screaming calling my name.I and Wirda turned to the source of the voice that called me.And how shocked I was when I saw Mbak Riska was running in a frenzy towards me.His breathing was stingy,his face was deathly pale full of worry.I and Wirda who saw the condition of Mbak Riska like that immediately got up from sitting and approached him.

"Mbak,Mbak Riska why?,"we were worried.

Sister Riska held me and tried to talk to me,"Ughhhhh..Ran...Raniy.bi.sa.i.kut..Mmmbakk.se.ka.space,"he said with a wheezing breath.

I became very worried to see the condition of Mbak Riska,"Yes mbak, but what's wrong mbak?,"you were curious while holding the hand of Mbak Riska.

"Grandfather..Ran..Grandfather..," said Ms. Riska while crying.

I saw Madam Riska becoming more and more worried.

"Grandfather had a heart attack Ran.Now grandfather is in the ICU room and calls Rani's name continues," said Ms Riska crying.

"Oh my God" I said in shock.

"Come on Ran, come on for a second," said Mrs Riska while pulling me.

I was confused to go with Mbak Riska but I was also worried about the state of grandfather.Will but the mother no one was waiting for him.My heart was worried, I was worried,until finally Wirda took the initiative to keep waiting for mother and while I went first with Mbak Riska.Lalu without lingering again me and Mbak Riska immediately headed to the grandfather's place.

Arriving in front of the ICU room there is Mr. Sugeng, Bu Sri, and,Brother Reno and some of their family aides.Bu Sri then approached me and hugged me while crying.I also could not see his sadness.Not long after the doctor who examined the grandfather came out.He explained that the condition of the current grandfather began to improve but the doctor asked all of us not to exert pressure or make him sad because it can be fatal to the health of grandfather.After that I was accompanied by Mr. Sugeng, Bu Sri and Kak Reno entered the grandfather's room.

Inside the grandfather looked very weak but he still realized the arrival of us all.So his voice softly called my name to get close to him.Seeing his condition like that I was really powerless and sad.Then I held his fingers.Grandfather looked at me deeply and closely.Suara so clean and slow,"Ran..Rani's my granddaughter."

"Yes kek.Rani here," I said slowly holding back the tears.

"Please promise Grandpa Rani.Kakek please, promise me, "please ask me."

"Promise what cake,"we asked while looking at him.

Then grandfather called Brother Reno to come closer beside me.

"Yes kek.Reno here," said Sister Reno with teary eyes.

Slowly the grandfather put my hand and Brother Reno stacked together with the grasp of the grandfather.I turned towards Brother Reno and instead Brother Reno looked at me.

"Please promise Grandpa that no matter what happens you two will stay together as husband and wife and will not part to end your marriage.Please promise!," Grandfather's voice was so soft.

I who heard Grandpa's words was so surprised and immediately looked towards Kak Reno, Pak Sugeng and Bu Sri.

Grandpa asked me again, "Rani, please promise grandfather."Then Grandfather asked Reno to make a promise anyway, "Reno, you also have to promise grandfather not to leave and release Rani and will always take care of her.Please promise me, "ask grandfather.

Mr. Sugeng and Bu Sri are increasingly crying to see the condition of the grandfather.Grandfather's breathing is getting stung to see his condition finally Kak Reno said, "Yes kek.Reno promised not to let go of Rani whatever happened.Reno will always keep the cake,"said Brother Reno while crying.

"Rani, I want to hear your promise, son," said the old man.

On the one hand I want to be free from the marriage of this series.But on the other hand I do not want to make the condition of grandfather worse.I really am in a big dilemma.

Mr. Sugeng and Ms. Sri were like gesturing to me so that I would fulfill my grandfather's request as well as Brother Reno who kept looking at me while waiting for my answer.

I was so afraid of the decision that I would take.My heart was increasingly worried and agitated.Will but the condition of the grandfather was getting worse.By mentioning the asthma of God my lips also agreed with the request of grandfather.

"Allah Allah is the kek.Rani will remain with Brother Reno," I said quietly with trembling.

Grandfather who heard my words smiled slowly.He clasped my hand and Kak Reno's hand tightly.

Once again I and Brother Reno exchanged views.His frightened and anxious face looked relieved as well as Mr. Sugeng and Bu Sri.

But I was still silent in the decision that I took.All felt different in the sketch of the scenario of the Creator.It feels tasteless I do not know what will happen next for the decision I have made.A promise that binds me to wade through life with a man I don't love right now.Keep me O God, my love in my heart.
